+I<perldoc> looks up a piece of documentation in .pod format that is embedded
+in the perl installation tree or in a perl script, and displays it via
+C<pod2man | nroff -man | $PAGER>. (In addition, if running under HP-UX,
+C<col -x> will be used.) This is primarily used for the documentation for
+the perl library modules.
Your system may also have man pages installed for those modules, in
which case you can probably just use the man(1) command.
you need, and you'd like to inspect the code directly; perldoc will find
the file for you and simply hand it off for display.
+=item B<-l> file name only
+
+Display the file name of the module found.
+
+=item B<-F> file names
+
+Consider arguments as file names, no search in directories will be performed.
+
+=item B<-f> perlfunc
+
+The B<-f> option followed by the name of a perl built in function will
+extract the documentation of this function from L<perlfunc>.
+
+=item B<-q> perlfaq
+
+The B<-q> option takes a regular expression as an argument. It will search
+the question headings in perlfaq[1-9] and print the entries matching
+the regular expression.
+
+=item B<-X> use an index if present
+
+The B<-X> option looks for a entry whose basename matches the name given on the
+command line in the file C<$Config{archlib}/pod.idx>. The pod.idx file should
+contain fully qualified filenames, one per line.
+
+=item B<-U> run insecurely
+
+Because B<perldoc> does not run properly tainted, and is known to
+have security issues, it will not normally execute as the superuser.
+If you use the B<-U> flag, it will do so, but only after setting
+the effective and real IDs to nobody's or nouser's account, or -2
+if unavailable. If it cannot relinguish its privileges, it will not
+run.

=item B<PageName|ModuleName|ProgramName>
The item you want to look up. Nested modules (such as C<File::Basename>)
are specified either as C<File::Basename> or C<File/Basename>. You may also
-give a descriptive name of a page, such as C<perlfunc>. You make also give a
+give a descriptive name of a page, such as C<perlfunc>. You may also give a
partial or wrong-case name, such as "basename" for "File::Basename", but
this will be slower, if there is more then one page with the same partial
name, you will only get the first one.
=head1 ENVIRONMENT
-Any switches in the C<PERLDOC> environment variable will be used before the
+Any switches in the C<PERLDOC> environment variable will be used before the
command line arguments. C<perldoc> also searches directories
specified by the C<PERL5LIB> (or C<PERLLIB> if C<PERL5LIB> is not
defined) and C<PATH> environment variables.
(The latter is so that embedded pods for executables, such as

+used if C<perldoc> was told to display plain text or unformatted pod.)
